Prince George's County, Md., Code § 2-380 (2026)

(a) The Council may receive funds and contribute funds as follows:

  (1) The Council shall receive all auto tag rebates and other State credits, including those formerly accruing to special taxing areas, and may credit such funds to such assessments as described in this Division to the urban area, suburban area or any portion thereof. The Council shall specifically credit such auto tag rebates to all costs of street lighting and any surplus thereof shall be considered as part of the general funds.

  (2) The Council may contribute from the general funds or proceeds of bond issues such sums as in their judgment shall be just and equitable to the original assessment as set out in Section 2-374, and may also receive from a municipality, agency, private individual or company and apply to such project such sums of money as might be agreed upon and such adjustments as may be made by the Council shall be final and conclusive.

  (3) The Council may contribute general funds or receive contributions from other County agencies, private interests, municipalities, adjacent counties, the District of Columbia or the United States Government in the pursuance of the original construction of such drainage systems or portions thereof as set out in Section 2-376.

  (4) The Council may not contribute general funds in carrying out the provisions of this Division, except as provided in this Section, but in the event in any one (1) year the ad valorem tax, special assessment or unit service tax levied is insufficient for the purpose of paying the principal and interest maturities of any bonds, notes or certificates of indebtedness issued under the provisions of this Division, general funds may be used. The following year the particular tax levy or assessment for such service, function or improvement which caused the need of the use of general funds shall be increased to the extent necessary to reimburse the general funds used in the previous year. (This Subsection applies principally to those projects as set out in Section 2-367(a)(2) and (3).
